As a Witch, I have struggled to figure out my interpretation of magick, the Divine, and my spirituality fit into my life. As I have grown in years and wisdom, I have realized that I don’t have to fit them in as if they were a square that needed to be placed in a circle. What I needed was to recognize my world view and perspective, along with my main ethics. Then, I could throw the square and circle into a fire pit so that it could be changed into light and warmth.
Mission Statement:
- I recognize that I am a human being that is filled with messy parts, kindness, jealousy, pride, generosity, and good humor. I am a temporarily in a body and mind with grievances, hopes and dreams, and intentions. With this said, I am committed in recognizing in myself when I have overstepped or need to maintain boundaries, in recognizing my flaws and weaknesses, in recognizing my strengths, and in seeing the Divine in every person I lay eyes on. Sometimes, I will be great at this, but on the days I truly suck at it I will do my best to avoid flagellating myself.
- I would like to say I value honesty, generosity, and critical thinking. These three values are essential, but I will do my best not to use them poorly. However, I feel that it is important to speak up when others use their privileges, morals, and beliefs to harm others.
- It is my intention to explore, discover, and learn new things. As I grow in understanding, I will share what I feel is appropriate for my blog posts. Anything that I keep to myself, I do out of respect to the Divine and to myself.
